Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
For a dated, located U.S. sighting, FAA radar data and ATC communications are the records most likely to exist. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.

Noticed a light in the sky that looked like an airplane, but never moved. Proceeded to get telescope out and noticed a sphere that looked as if it was made out of wires. Also noticed 2 black things inside of the center or at times one black thing and a tail on it. No lights were on it and once the sun went over the horizon it was very hard to see. There was 3 other of these lights in the sky very far apart from each other. The whole incident lasted a whole hour but I am sure it was there for half an hour more at least. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
